Removal tool no longer removes

[jean-louis 99425839]

New version LR Classic V 13.0 Camera Raw 16.0

Windows 11

1/ select the Spot Removal tool

2/ Set opacity to 100 and no progressive contour (if not already)

3/ Select clone

4/ click and drag the part of the photo to retouch

Result: the image below the clone is still visible, as if the opacity was not at 100. There is now no possibility to remove a part of an image. Am I wrong?

The screenshot you posted looks like a heal is being applied on top of an AI-selected area.  If so, then it is likely due to this: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/p-perform-healing-operations-car-spot-c...

You are right, it is the first time I have this problem.

Many thanks!
